So, Tories would cancel Erasmus and youth mobility, scrap the SPS deal that reduces red tape, lowers costs and eases backlogs for goods trade and renege on our new energy, defence and security arrangements… Ridiculous threat, ridiculous party, ridiculous people…
Tories would reverse steps to undo Brexit

This is dangerous talk, he should be reprimanded for it.
The United Kingdom is releasing five Muslim terrorists accused of planning an attack on an American airbase.
They should just officially rename themselves the United Islamic Kingdom and get it over with.

Liz Truss doesn't know the difference between the Black Sea and the Baltic Sea. She knocked £425bn off the value of pension fund assets. She thinks Tony Blair set up the Bank of England. And major companies pay her £80,000 a speech for her insights on politics and economics.

"The activities.. we are undertaking in support of our friends in Saudi Arabia are purely defensive" The Saudis have been committing war crimes in Yemen for years, with British trained pilots in British built planes dropping British bombs. Thats what Pollard means by 'defensive'

The language of 'defensive' support is a smokescreen - the PM has committed the UK to this conflict Thousands have been killed by the Saudi-led coalition. Weddings hit, markets destroyed. International Humanitarian Law breached. The UK must not back the murderous Saudi regime.

When they say we can't afford the state pension or the NHS or any other unversal service, what they mean is they want to hoard even more wealth to add to their mountains of gold, and they're willing to let us die in the gutter rather than enjoy a retirement, to get it.

Margaret Thatcher did not 'regenerate the British economy'. She devastated the UK's industrial base, put three million people on the dole and plunged entire communities into the kind of poverty they still haven't recovered from four decades later.
